We are furry thankful that Mom knows how to give sub-q fluids at home so Lilly doesn't have to go to the V-E-T every day to get stuck with the sub-q needle plus it would cost too many green papers.

Such a good girl!
Good girl Lilly! Who took these pictures. Good shots Laila! ;)
ReplyDeleteAuntie Shannon took the pictures. I didn't realize she was taking as many as she did.
ReplyDeleteLilly, we are very glad that you take your subQ fluids so well! It is good that your mom knows how to give the fluids to you. :)
ReplyDeleteLilly we are so glad that it doesn't bother you to have that needle and that your Mom does it so well that you can't even feel it...we are glad you don't have to get stressed and go to the Vet...

Lilly you are a very good patient!
ReplyDeleteOUCH! Wow, Lilly is a fantastic patience & Auntie Peggy, you are so brave to do this for Lilly. I am the 16th kitty Mommy has been guardian to and she has never been faced with this but she said she would do what it takes if ever needed. BTW, MOMMY IS BACK! Boy was she sore from all that walkin' 'round NYC! =^Y^=Ty
ReplyDeleteLilly is behaving so well! I don't think any of us furry babies would be so sweet with our mommy if she had to do that for us.
ReplyDeleteWow Lilly, you and your Mum are so brave. I think me and my Mum would be kinda scared to do that, but then if you have to do it, you have to do it, so you get used to it.
ReplyDeleteYou are a very good girl Lilly for staying so still.
lilly stays still, I don't think I would stay still. Mum would not have a problem doing the fluid thing.
ReplyDeleteWow, Lilly's mom! You're such a good mommy!! Especially to keep Lilly so calm.
ReplyDeleteAwww, Lilly -- how precious. Your Mom is a wonderful nurse, and she takes such good care of you. I'm glad you can receive your SubQs at home!
ReplyDeletePurrs and snuggles from Marilyn.
She is being a very good cat. Our cat had to be up on the bathroom sink so he could drink out of the faucet while getting fluids! That was the only thing that would distract him!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a a good, sweet girl, Lilly.
ReplyDeleteWow Peggy, you are amazing. I could not do this! And you are really a good girl, Lilly!
ReplyDeleteWow! She is a very, very good girl! Way to go Lilly and Mom!
